ffl' LEE' The time: June, 1960. The place: Dogpatch which has grown from a small town in 1950 to a city of considerable size. Scattered throughout the city we find the members of the graduating class of 1950 pursuing fame and fortune in various walks of life. As we walk down Ridge Road, one of Dogpatch's main streets, we notice master mechanic Howard Oper hard at work in his now well established repair garage. In a little shop next door we find Herb Meyers getting a charge out of hislelectrl- cal appliance work. Continuing down the street we find Jane Finch s modern beauty shop with Alice Michalske as Jane's able assistant. At the corner of Memphis and Ridge, where a large office building has been erectedty construction engineer Lawrence Junker according to the plans drawn by master draftsman Wally Novak, we find big business man Doug Thomas busy giving orders to his office staff.

Ronny Simecekis in charge ofthe peanut and popcorn concession. Covering the game for the fans at home are Tom White, star radio-sports announcer, and Joe Hornaok on his play by play telecast. Across the street Dale Dickerson runs his large dry cleaning establishment for the people of the community. Gloria Bertola and Mary Gesarone, happily married women, are two of Da1e's best-customers. A short way down the block we see Tom 0'Stas1k's new Bar-B-Q whose beautiful modern furnishings were designed by artist Connie Heym, and that very exclusive interior decorator, Laverne Shiffer. As we pass the school athletic field, we notice biology teacher-coach Wayne Christner instructing his squad how to take an opposing player apart on the field and put him back together again in the classroom. t the high school we find Lillian Zelinski teaching Home Economics. A short distance from the school, a new clinic has been erected. Here we find surgeon Bob Wellman talking over his latest case with psychologist Ronald erkhcff. At the tcp of Brookpark hill where a brand new ultra modern theatre has just been completed we notice that colorful advertisements, designed by commercial artists Betty Wachs and B111 Novak, announce the grand opening will co-feature Allen Bormann, recent adademy award winner, in his new Pi-GW-P9 'All The Men's King' and Hay Meyers in his new release 'The Larry Parks Story'. Another successful business man we find is David Hillquist who is general manager of the new department store at Pearl and Brcokpark roads. Jane Taylor is his personal secretary. In the large shopping center, adjacent to the department store, we find John Kaozmarsk1's Tasty-Pastry Bakery Shag and Tommy Sh1fflett's flashy men's store. At the end of the block we find Dave ayes, veterinarian, in his animal hospital. Jerry Dickerson, whose offices are located above the animal hospital, has gained much fame as a celebrated criminal lawyer. At the corner of Biddulph and Roadoan roads, we see that a large orphanage is now in operation under the capable supervision of Fonda Folger.
